Nice to see that ad in Ramparts once again. Wallkill residents didn't want the festival and the zoning board banned the event. Max Yasgur made his dairy farm available. It was the perfect spot. The pasture formed a natural amphitheater.

"This is a walk down the road trip, you know? Incredible! I heard the New York State Thruway's closed. Isn't that far out?"

"I don't know if you could ahhh....I don't know like how many of you can dig how many people there are, man. Like I was rappin' to the fuzz. haha. Right, can you dig it? Man, there's supposed to be a million and a half people here by tonight! Can you dig that? The New York Sate Thruway's closed, man! haha. Yeah, it's far out, man! Lotta freaks!"
